Shelf
Intro: Shelf
This is an instructable to build a simple shelf; nothing fancy just a simple shelf for books and decorations with borders.
STEP 1: The Slab
First, you're going to take a 3-by-1-foot measurement from the plywood and cut it out with the jigsaw.
STEP 2: Border Pieces
Next measure the thin wood and make sure it has a hypotenuse of 17.5 inches then cut it out with the jigsaw.
STEP 3: The Anchors
Then measure 4 other pieces of plywood where two will have a length of 8 inches and 2 will have a length of 6 inches but both will be a width of 3 inches and cut them out with a jig saw.
STEP 4: Start of the Shelf
Then nail the two thin pieces of triangle wood to the sides of the width sides of the 3 by 1 and make sure you use three nails on each side; two on the far left and right and one in the middle for both.
STEP 5: Attach the Anchors
Nail two nails to the eight-inch pieces to the 3-inch side of the 6-inch pieces for the anchors.
STEP 6: Final Touch
Then finally mark the 1-foot and 2-foot margins on the 3-foot wood and use two screws to connect the anchors to the shelf board.
